Open the door to an exciting piece of paradise at this Italian-inspired luxury rental. This property is in the fashionable Destiny East section of Destin, Florida. The house is carefully designed to accommodate large groups but with the added touch of providing privacy for everyone.
The spacious, beautifully designed foyer opens to a large, ground-floor living room, carefully crafted for conversation. There’s a flat-screen TV, a kitchenette, and a convenient powder room. The beautiful indoor fireplace is meant for visual enjoyment only and is not intended for guest use. The second floor open-concept dining area and bar seating compliment the expansive kitchen planned for a free flow of activity with all the comforts of home, and high-end appliances.
The six bedrooms have king or queen-sized beds, with a bunk room that has four, full-sized beds and ensuite bathrooms. All bedroom windows offer panoramic sights. The king primary bedroom on the third floor has a lovely, enclosed sitting room with scenic views. The ensuite bath has a toilet room, separate tub, and standing shower.
However, there are many surprising and quaint aspects to this rental. From the third floor, up a charming spiral staircase is the Crow’s Nest loft. This area has a seating space, efficiency kitchen, wet bar, and a roof-top balcony. Lounge chairs are perfect for sunning with a 360-degree, birds-eye view of your surroundings.
Another sensational component of this property is a bonus living area with its own living room, wet bar, and a full-sized kitchen/dining area. Bunk and sofa beds complete this comfortable, secluded space.
A carefully manicured landscape ensures privacy around the lagoon-style pool, which can be heated for an extra fee during the off-season. The pool area includes a hot tub, fountain, and an outside shower. But the emerald waters and pristine white sandy beaches of the Gulf Coast will lure you to the water’s edge, just minutes away and easily accessible.
This gated community invites more enjoyment at Club Destiny, which has a large, seasonally heated pool, hot tub, and community kitchen/grilling area. Lounge chairs are plentiful, and activities such as golf, tennis, biking, boating, and water sports are nearby at an extra charge.
Emerald Coast vacation rentals don’t get much more magnificent than Tranquility.
About the Community:
This gated community in Destin, Florida, was thoughtfully developed with luxury beach rentals that are an easy walking distance to the pristine sands and emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico. However, there are so many amenities within this upper-scale community.
Club Destiny is a high-end communal gathering spot with something for everyone. The Fitness Center has floor-to-ceiling windows providing panoramic views while you utilize their modern equipment as you work in your daily exercise routine. Then, do laps in one of two pools. The main pool is lagoon-style with a fountain, while the second pool is at the water’s edge of Four Prong Lake. Of course, the hot tub is a relaxing option.
For families, there’s a JMax theater and a playground that provides comfortable seating while parents oversee playtime. If you’re into competitive sports, there are tennis, pickleball, and basketball courts. But boat rentals and water sports activities are also plentiful in this part of Northwest Florida.

Hi Zach! We are so happy to hear you have had a great trip and the house met your needs with all the great amenities. Watching the sun come up with a cup of coffee is the perfect start to a day. Please come back and see us again soon!
Overall the house was clean. The kitchen could use some new pans and some updated cooking utensils. Location was great, easy walk to the beach, close to restaurants & shopping. Hot tub gets very hot and the heated pool was nice for our New Year’s stay! Amenity center had a nice playground, big pool & hottub and pickleball courts.

Hi Deborah, WOW! Fifteen friends, I bet that was fun. We are delighted to hear the home met all your needs. Let us know when you are back in the area, we would love to host your group again!
The house has some positives and some negatives. The size of the house is fantastic with well appointed bedrooms. The location is great. The tower balcony is perfect for sunsets. The game room in the first level is a nice plus. The issues we had were on the main level. The living room has too little seating for the size of the house. There is plenty of room for another sofa and it is needed. The kitchen is barely functional. What the owner needs to do is clean out the drawers and throw away and replace everything that is broken (i.e can opener and wine opener) and replace what is barely functional (the pans). For that nice of a property and for that price, the kitchen should not be the land of misfit utensils and appliances. The house generally worked for our family of 11 adults but I would likely not stay at this property again.

Thank you for your feedback. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts about your stay.
We wanted to let you know that the kitchen items have been replaced, including new pans and a thorough review of all the drawers to ensure functionality. Your comments about the living room seating have also been noted, and we are currently discussing potential improvements with the owner to better accommodate larger groups.
We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the size of the house, the well-appointed bedrooms, the convenient location, and the tower balcony for sunsets. Your input helps us improve, and we hope you’ll consider staying with us again in the future.
Thank you again for your valuable feedback.
We had a great week! The house was nice and accommodating and the community was perfect. My only complaints about the property are…the jets never worked on the hot tub, the kitchen wasn’t stocked very well(the cookware is scratched really bad) and the tile in the kitchen has huge cracks that will pinch your foot. Other than that this is a beautiful home that we enjoyed so much as a family!

The property was not efficiently maintained. This is advertised with a pool but the pool was not operation at all during our stay. There were many other small issues like leaks and lights that didn’t work. The location is great but it was a huge let down for 8 kids to find out they couldn’t use the pool.

I don’t like to rate a place as being bad. This house was beautiful. The pool was not in working condition though. The spa didn’t work. The house was spotless. Very clean and accommodating, however after all the rain came ,it rained in the house. Causing damage to the windows. Maintenance jumped right on it. The elevator was out of order, so my older in laws had to stay on the ground floor. Overall, our stay was great. We had fun, and that was our objective. To be with family and have a good time.

Hi, Kathy, first we want to thank you for staying with FunVacay. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the top deck and the views! Unfortunately, we did have to replace the A/C system on the third floor while you were visiting but we certainly did not want you going without A/C, we are terribly sorry for any inconvenience to you. We would have been glad to send housekeeping over for any cleaning issue you had during your stay. Again, we thank you for staying with FunVacay and do hope to see you and your family in the future.

Extremely Disappointed – Stay Away From This RentalOur family had been looking forward to this vacation for months, but unfortunately, this rental completely ruined the experience. After a seven-hour drive, we arrived at the property around 10 PM, only to find that the house was not ready for check-in.The condition of the home was unacceptable:- Beds were broken and unmade, with no clean linens in sight.- The kitchen was dirty and clearly hadn’t been cleaned between guests.- The pool was filthy and unusable… they didn’t come clean it until Saturday and we were checking out on Sunday - Moldy bathrooms To make matters worse, the customer service was absolutely terrible. We reached out for help and were met with zero support or accountability. Instead of offering solutions, they immediately warned us that if we left the property, we would not receive a refund—completely disregarding the fact that the house was uninhabitable.In the end, we were forced to rent hotel rooms to accommodate our family, which added unexpected cost and stress to our trip.This experience was not only disappointing but also completely unacceptable for the price we paid. I would strongly advise others to think twice before booking this rental or working with this management company.

We deeply apologize for falling short of your expectations and for any stress caused during your vacation.
Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention. We hope you might consider staying with us again in the future, allowing us the opportunity to provide the exceptional experience you deserve.
My family and I visited the property for Thanksgiving Holiday. The house itself was great. Located within a gated community, we felt safe and secure. There was no issue with accessing the property or any of the amenities. My niece (15) loved the bikes. We didn't make use of the garage because the driveway better than accommodated our vehicles.
There was plenty of room for everybody and the Carriage House provide a great private space for the couple. Regardless to age or physical limitations. My dad (86) was able to maneuver through the spacious house without incident and my niece (39) really enjoyed being able to move around the house using the elevator and not being restricted because of her wheelchair. The master bedroom was UH-MAZING, complete with a garden tub. The kitchen was well equipped (Although, some of the cooking pans could stand to be replaced). There were more than enough plates, cups, glasses and cooking utensils. The starter packs provided by the owner were great. We literally had everything we needed and more.
The outside temperature didn't allow use of the pool, but the hot tub was great for relaxing after a day of shopping. The weather did a flip-flop on us the last two days (it rained, and the temperature dropped) but everyone was comfortable. The property is conveniently located to shopping (grocery stores, mall, pharmacy), the beach, restaurants, and fun activities. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that your Thanksgiving holiday was such a success and that the house provided everything your family needed for a comfortable and memorable stay. It’s wonderful to know that everyone—from your dad to your niece—could enjoy the home with its spacious layout and accessible features like the elevator.
We’re glad you found the kitchen well-equipped and appreciate your feedback about the pans; we have already updated them. It’s also great to hear that the hot tub offered a cozy retreat after your outings, even with the cooler weather.
Thank you for highlighting the convenient location and the safety of the gated community. We truly appreciate your high recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another fantastic stay soon!

Bring the utensils
Overall the location and house were as described. It was a short walk to the beach that even the littlest kids could handle. Elevator was great for transporting luggage up to the top floor. Second floor is a great open space with living room, kitchen and dining but… the kitchen is lacking on pots/pans and serving or prep utensils. Also some of the ones that were provided didn’t work properly. We made due but that made it very difficult to prep meals for our larger party. You may also want to bring your own cleaning supplies. A couple more brooms and a vacuum cleaner to help keep sand to a minimum. Beware of the HOA and pay close attention to where you park. I was warned by FunVacay about the first “offense” and we were able to avoid others but there is no warnings. $50 fine for parking “violations”. Also the HOA charged us twice for a single offense and had to call FunVacay to fix the situation. Something I’m sure no one wants to do while on vacation.
Overall the house provided us a place to sleep and the room descriptions were accurate. If it’s what you need it will do the job. If you are looking for luxury and ease for a vacation, you may want to look further for another property. The highlight for the kids from this property was probably the big community pool and beach.

Hi Jeremy!
Thank you for the review and feedback!
Having the elevator is such a plus to transport heavy luggage.
Since your stay at Tranquility the pots/pans and vacuum cleaner have been replaced. Also, there have been many updates throughout the home.
We stock our homes with a starter pack including Starbucks coffee, creamer, sugar, bottled water, salt & pepper, dish detergent, dish sponge, paper towel roll, dishwasher pods, toilet paper rolls, trash bags for kitchen and bath, shampoo, conditioner, massage bath bar, hand soap, lotion, and laundry detergent. Also, all homes are now stocked with three extra blankets to enjoy lounging.
The HOA in the community does have very strict parking rules and set fines.
Again, thank you and we hope to welcome you back soon!
